Coronene (C(24)H(12)) is a flat polyaromatic hydrocarbon consisting of seven peri-fused benzene rings and attracts lots of attention as a fragment of graphene. Using a hybrid method of quantum chemistry and statistical mechanics called RISM-SCF, which is an alternative to
A self-assembled M8L6 cubic cage that selectively encapsulates large aromatic guests.

We show that the different bond orders of individual carbon-carbon bonds in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and fullerenes can be distinguished by noncontact atomic force microscopy (AFM) with a carbon monoxide (CO)-functionalized tip. We found two different contrast mechanisms, which were

Here we report hexathienocoronenes (HTCs), fully thiophene-annelated coronenes in which six double bonds in the periphery are thieno-fused. The derivatives tetrasubstituted with hexyl and dodecyl chains show a phase formation that strongly depends on the chain length. HTCs are remarkably
Based on previous work on both perylene and coronene derivatives as G-quadruplex binders, a novel chimeric compound was designed: N,N'-bis[2-(1-piperidino)-ethyl]-1-(1-piperidinyl)-6-[2-(1-piperidino)-ethyl]-benzo[ghi]perylene-3,4:9,10-tetracarboxylic diimide (EMICORON), having one piperidinyl group bound to the perylene bay area (positions 1, 12 and 6, 7 of the
